    Webif not showing TV picture in screen capture

    Box Xtrend ET10000
    OpenVix version 6.5.001 and 6.5.002
    Skin Simple Ten Eighty
    Webif interface settings = as per screenshot 1

    When selecting the screenshot in the web interface the TV video picture is always either blank (black screen) or is a vertical stripe pattern as shown in attached screen shots. The on screen graphics are always OK, it’s just the video that is missing or has been corrupted.

    This problem exists on my box in both 6.5.001 and 6.5.002 using both Firefox and MS Edge as the laptop browser, and with selecting low or high resolution in screen capture. Reverting to version 6.4.011 and the screen capture is OK, both the TV video picture and the on screen graphics are displayed correctly.

    Hello,

    I can reproduce it. When that is selected, you have a black screen.

    Yes, my picture was from Vu+ Uno 4K SE with 6.5.002. Use modern interface = No or Yes, same result (only subtitles can be seen).

    just blank, a black screen.

    Will cloning the display to the front panel make a difference?

    .... Yes it does. If I turn that setting off it works.

    I cannot reproduce that issue , is working for me
    I've just tried again. Downloaded 6.5.002 and flashed (couch flash) with no restore of settings. I configured my network then scanned for Freesat channels and launched Webif. It still has the same problem in both the modern webif interface and the old interface.

    Is this just a Xtrend ET10k problem? Bear in mind when reverting to version 6.4.011 it works OK so probably ruling out the PC.
